mythos

natalie kuhn | Antiparos island, GREECE

| 13-18 june 2025

A Make the Sun retreat in collaboration with FYKIADA. The Greek word MYTHOS translates to "our larger story." Set against the breathtaking backdrop of Antiparos, this six-day retreat invites you to reimagine the stories you hold about yourself and your place in the world.


practice

Mythos retreat is led by Natalie Kuhn, and assisted by Alison McLea-Wolper.

Each morning, we’ll awaken our bodies with gentle stretches followed by an invigorating breathwork practice. Then, we’ll gather for enriching conversations that weave together philosophy, poetry, and Greek mythology, offering new perspectives and deeper connections to your personal narrative.

Afternoons will be spent immersing ourselves in the island’s unique beauty and culture as a group. One afternoon will take us on a long hike through Antiparos’ scenic trails, another will have us swimming in the crystalline waters of the Aegean, and yet another will be spent exploring the charming cobblestone streets of the town.

Natalie Kuhn is a retreat leader, teacher, and interfaith reverend-in-training dedicated to guiding others toward greater clarity, connection, and self-discovery. With over a decade of experience in wellness and personal transformation, she blends her expertise in mental health with an accessible and inclusive approach to spirituality.

our island home

A luxury collection of five private homes located on the southern tip of Antiparos. Their privileged location up on the hill offers an overwhelming view of the Aegean and the Ancient Sanctuary of Apollo in a safe haven from the elements.

Although the houses are blessed with the privacy and serenity of the hill, they are just 15’ walk away from the sea, and the vibrancy of the southern beaches of Antiparos. Each house offers uninterrupted view to the Aegean, minimal chic Cycladic design, and the unmatched silence of a protected bay. Click for more images.


nourishment

Food in Antiparos is what we call in Greek ‘evdaimonia’= the joy of the spirit. Is described as food for the soul, the subtle body and the eyes. Food prepared by our retreat chef with deep knowledge of Greek culture, macrobiotic nutrition and respect to the land.

Freshly baked bread, colourful salads, fresh fruits, nourishing microgreens grown on our counter, homemade kombucha, and all the traditional recipes you want to try from the hands of a local. Our retreats offer a morning snack, brunch & dinner while tea, coffee, fruits and delicious leftovers are in abundance the whole day.


a glimpse of our days

Our days are based on flow. A balanced blend of movement, rest and adventure. There’s a suggested schedule but everyday is different. The group has a life of its own and we love syncing to the magic that unfolds.

We are together, but free to be alone. We go on adventures, like walking on the coast and finding coves and rocks to dive from, and taking the boat to hop on the nearby islands. Lots of sun, sea, and sun. Lots of silence, laughs, conversations, and solitude.

take me there

Even though Antiparos is a separate island, it depends on its big sister Paros for connection to the rest of the world, thought the ports of Pounda and Paroikia. Paros is very well connected to Athens in two ways:

by air: Direct flights from Athens take less than 40' and are currently run by two airlines, Aegean Airlines and SkyExpress.

by ferry: fast and efficient ferry services connecting the main port of Paros (Paroikia) with Athens run year-round, and with even greater frequency in the summer months.

Crossing from Paros to Antiparos: ferries depart from the main port (Paroikia) as well as Pounta. They generally run every 45 minutes to 1 hour in the summer months. The actual crossing takes 5min from Pounta and 30min from Paroikia and tickets can be bought on the ferry - no need to book in advance. For an up-to-date schedule click here.

From Antiparos port, transfers are included in the retreat cost.

We advise our guests to allow one day prior and after the retreat for their travelling and book flexible or refundable plane tickets. You may use ferryhopper.com to check the ferries schedule and book your boat tickets online.

*Flights and boat tickets are not included in the retreat prices mentioned above.
